Ruth Paine QA 9/22 at Texas Theatre JFK assassination film premiere

I just finished watching the video, this would have been an interesting event to attend, to listen to a participant to historical events and their experiences. The best question came at the end and I wish Ruth would have gone into more detail.

I believe hat there is much more to the tale ( hiding the note) than we know about....Lee had compiled the false dossier in the blue note book. He had intended for that binder to be seen by the police after they tracked him through the purchase of the unusual rifle ( carcano).   But the cops never found the carcano where Lee had left it for them to find.  Thus they never saw the blue binder....nor did they see the note that Marina had hidden away.   

We know that on the evening of 11/22/ 63 Marina apprised  Marguerite Oswald of Lee's involvement in the Walker hoax.   She told Marg that she still had a photo of Lee holding the rifle and the note that he had left for her on the evening of the Walker incident, which she had hid in a Russian book..   They were at Ruth Paines small house at the time, so there's little doubt that Ruth Paine heard the conversation and she knew about the note.

Notice at the 19:15 point RP is talking about Buell Frazier and asks if Buell Frazier is in the audience .... The camera focuses on Frazier immediately so apparently RP already knew that Buell was in attendance, but she pretends to be happy that he is there....  It's very obvious that Buell Frazier DOES NOT like RP.   He does not stand up nor does he smile.   

At the 50:42 point RP was asked if she saw any indication that Lee was dangerous...  She replied that she didn't think he was dangerous.....

And Cal Wheeler said that the ACLU attorney  H. Louis Nichols who visited Lee in the jail cell said that he found Lee to be very polite and congenial, and if it hadn't been for all the adverse publicity about Lee Oswald he would never ever had guessed that he was dangerous .

There are so many points in RP's tale that I'd like to debate with her.......

Early in the children's Story Time ...... She said that the air was full of talk about assassination and the air of danger for the President permeated the atmosphere ( Not her exact words)   But the point is .....She's spewing nonsense.    One glance at the photos of the crowds lining the streets of Dallas refutes her statement.  If there was danger in the air.....The secret Service would have had the bubble top on the Lincoln....

I just figured out the two videos were edited differently, the one I watched the last question to Ruth was concerning Michael and his employment with Bell. Ruth talked about that but really didn't answer that question how this employment fit with the type of person that Michael was. I'm just starting up the first video.

Ruth said she didn't believe Lee was dangerous at the time, Michael Paine in his 2013 manuscript wrote Lee at one time stated change could only come through violence and he didn't doubt Lee could kill someone. He also wrote Lee said Kennedy was the best President in his lifetime.
